Injections Treatments for Lip Enhancement

The size and shape of lips depend primarily by hereditary factors. Girls are more likely to inherit the father than the mother’s lips and vice versa. Because of the labial glands atrophy, lips tend to slim down as we age. There are more lip enhancement methods using injectable treatments:

Precursors of collagen’ injections (hyaluronic acid) – are produced in the pharmaceutical industry, non allergic, non animal. This substance is resorbable and the speed and quantum at which the body reabsorbs it is different from an individual to another (3 – 9 months). If the treatment can be repeated, then it is obtained an additive effect (each time “remains” a small volume and, finally, get bigger lips). This is the ideal treatment. Fast, long lasting, natural.

Autologous fat injections (lipocolagen): Fat material that contains personal collagen fibers is harvested with a needle from the adipose tissue of the hips or abdomen. It is then injected into the lips. If the injections are repeated, usually, could be obtained a more constant and longer retention of the fat material.
